There is currently a bug in the Linux version of Omniverse Create 2022.3.1 that causes problems with importing .fbx files. This issue will be fixed in the next release of Omniverse, but in the meantime, you can use the following workaround to fix the problem: 1. In the outliner, select the imported animation prim 2. Go to Properties and remove the "file:" prefix in the Payload path 3. Rotate the prim -90 degrees on the X axis
